Great little place for fried seafood and hot dogs. You can get 2 foot long HUMMEL hotdogs with fries, a drink and Cole slaw for $12. That’s about about $7 cheaper than Frankie’s and these hot dogs are grilled over flames instead of fried. They have a seafood platter for $30 and for an extra $5 you can switch from clam strips to whole bellies which is what I did and was totally worth the extra $5. There were so many whole bellies, it was ridiculous. The fried shrimp are cooked perfectly and the scallops are super flavorful and juicy albeit just a teeny bit too salty. The fish was cooked really well too although that’s not really my thing but I will say the breading on it was thin, crispy and delicious. The staff was incredibly friendly and answered all of my annoying questions with no problem at all. And one of the best things, free refills on the soda. Really, the only “complaint” I have about this place is that I wish the tartar sauce was more “relishy”. Can’t wait to try the burger. :)

Was in the mood for some seafood and decided to check this spot out. I ordered some fried shrimp and clam strips. When I got in the car I planned to just try a few clams..... 15 minutes later I ate everything before I got home ?. I will definitely be coming back to support this

The food is OUTSTANDING! I work close and get lunch here often. I made the mistake of getting the lobster roll and now I'm HOOKED! It's turned into a 2x a week treat, I can't get enough! The roll is PACKED with the best quality meat, it's so sweet and fresh. Sometimes they send butter sometimes not, but it's so flavorful it's not needed. The food is always done so fast and it's always incredible!

Driving my Mom to Boston and we were both hungry, she said exit 59 of the Hutchinson Parkway has restaurants. The general rule for me is that if I am in Connecticut or Boston or up North, Seafood restaurants are the best, fresh, and not as expensive as NY. At the Exit 59, I made the right and found this place. I am going to let you know, this is the FIRST restaurant that had a Lobster roll with A LOT of Lobster, it was delicious and good enough to satisfy my hunger. This is an absolute must have. Each time I got Lobster from any other restaurant, I was feeling like I needed to order 2 orders to get enough Lobster, not in this place, 1 Lobster roll is huge enough to satisfy my enjoyment of Lobsters.

Our first visit was Sunday in January 2024 for lunch. We ordered a fish and chips dinner and a fish sandwich. The order came up quick and hot. The staff was very friendly to us. We really enjoyed the meal.Parking: If the parking spots around the building are full. You can just park in the strip mall area and walk over. It is very close.

I’ve tried twice - the whole bellies and the fried fish sandwich. Each time I was not good unfortunately. Prices were fair though.

Westville seafood has good fish and chips. I appreciate a lightly seasoned fillet of fish, where i can taste the fish and not the season that should complement it. So kudos for that. The fries are crunchy. However, the one thing that took the best taste was the coleslaw. Wow! I am not a coleslaw guy. I tried the portion that came with my meal and i devoured the whole thing. I need to learn that recipe.
